Help me come up with some tracks that have a thuddy beat and big, stupid-sounding, blues-rocky slide guitar

For a conceptual remix project idea I have. Basically I'm looking for stuff that sounds like Blues Hammer.

first couple black keys albums should have everything you are looking for, right?

I want something a little shinier sounding than their records, higher production values

So by shinier you maybe mean a little more Black Crowes than Black Keys?

I think my ideal would be something that sounds roughly like a Bonamassa cover of Celebration Day by Led Zeppelin but slowed down and *bigger*.

I'm sure there must be something by Zen Guerilla that would fit this descrip, do you have Spotify?

Bonamassa was the first thing that sprang to my mind as well

Popa Chubby is bigger than Bonamassa

When I think of Blues Hammer, I usually go to Jonny Lang'a "Lie To me":

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but hot solos!

xp, yeah Jonny Lang is what jumped to my mind right away--maybe too traditionally bluesy?

Loser by Beck?

I don't think any song could possibly embody the thread description more than this one:

Tell Mama by Savoy Brown might fit the bill as its more mid tempo and is based around a slide riff and solo.
